Bandwidth Measurement for Tor Server Nodes

[Cav]

Dear Group,

I have noticed that if I set a bandwidth restraint for my server, it 
hibernates when the amount of data 'downloaded' rather than 'sent' 
reaches the specified limit within the accounting period.
Thinking about it... does it make more sense for the limit to be applied 
to the amount of 'sent' data as opposed to 'received' ?
